Modelling long-term blanket peatland development in eastern Scotland [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2019
Blanket peatlands constitute a rare ecosystem on a global scale, but blanket peatland is the most important peatland type on the British Isles. Most long-term peatland development models have focussed on peat bogs and high-latitude regions.

Characterizing subsidence in used and restored peatland with Sentinel SAR data

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Peatland is a fragile ecosystem in the tropical region which is prone to subsidence. Until now, there is still lack of procedure to rapidly assess a tropical peatland subsidence in a large area.

A new approach for estimating northern peatland gross primary productivity using a satellite-sensor-derived chlorophyll index

, 2011
Carbon flux models that are largely driven by remotely sensed data can be used to estimate gross primary productivity (GPP) over large areas, but despite the importance of peatland ecosystems in the global carbon cycle, relatively little attention has ...

Aquifer-Peatland Hydrological Connectivity and Controlling Factors in Boreal Peatlands

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The conditions in which groundwater inflow occurs in boreal peatlands and its contribution to peatland water balance are still poorly understood. The objectives of this research were to quantify the hydrological connectivity between a surficial aquifer ...

Degradation Reduces Microbial Richness and Alters Microbial Functions in an Australian Peatland [PDF]

, 2022
Peatland ecosystems cover only 3% of the world’s land area; however, they store one-third of the global soil carbon (C). Microbial communities are the main drivers of C decomposition in peatlands, yet we have limited knowledge of their structure and ...

Carbon footprint of black peat from degraded peatland previously used for agriculture in Germany

, 2021
On a worldwide scale, drained peatlands contribute substantially to anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Reducing GHG from drained peatland is the most space- and cost-effective climate change mitigation option within the land use and ...
